Edinburgh, August 2010

This year I visited a friend of many years, Gerry Murray, who lives near Glasgow, Scotland. Gerry and I spent a couple days at the Edinburgh Fringe (which I’ll write more about soon) and one evening, heading back to catch a train, I turned and snapped the following photo of the city emerging from a cloud bank:

I have given quite a hunk of time to studying your grand panorama and I have learned a lot. Except for time, I am tempted to make a schematic version – outline of the buildings – and name them. What is part of the delight of study is that up on that hill and behind those imposing buildings is a grand street littered with these and other landmarks, one of the grand European ways.
